When I Create a New Matter, the Number is Larger Than I Expected

November 21, 2018 20:49

Issue:

Matter Number sequence seemingly jumps randomly (ie. New Matter is jumping from 18-00013 to 18-00067) when using Matter Number by Year.

Environment:

Clio Web App

Cause:

Matter of a previous year has been re-opened and was edited to have the Open Date in the current year. Because the current Matter Numbering Scheme is set to Matter Numbering (Per Year)/Yearly Matter Number, this results in the next Matter number to jump to follow the number of the re-opened Matter.
